Mixed Cheese Potato Stacks
We had these for dinner last night. I was going to make scalloped potatoes in individual casserole dishes. Then I thought of trying them in stacks. I've had a major case of stack love lately. Just about anything looks better and is more fun to eat when served as a stack.
I heavily sprayed some muffins tins and put one slice of potato in each. I lightly seasoned each slice, then put a small amount of a four-cheese Italian mix on top.
I made 3 more layers of the same. I heated 1-1/4 cups of milk and 3 tablespoons of butter in the microwave for one minute, then put about 3 spoonfuls of the liquid in each muffin tin (I had a total of 21 stacks).
It makes a bit of mess, so make sure to spray the entire top for easy clean up.
I covered the tins with foil and baked at 350 degrees for half of an hour. Then I removed the foil and added more cheese on the top - Muenster cheese on some and cheddar on the others. After baking another twenty minutes uncovered, they looked like this:
I let them rest about 12 minutes before removing from the tins and they held together quite nicely.
DH proclaimed these keepers. I like the Muenster-topped stacks the best. You can use any kind of cheese you like.
They look really good but I like most anything cooked with cheese, especially potatoes and the layer with sour creme. :)
